Cut Fabrics

Cut pieces in the following order. Click on Download this Project to download the appliqué patterns. To use fusible web for appliquéing, complete the following steps.

1. Lay fusible web, paper side up, over patterns. Use a pencil to trace each pattern the number of times indicated in cutting instructions, leaving 1/2" between tracings. Cut out each fusible-web shape roughly 1/4" outside traced lines.

2. Referring to Appliqué Placement Diagram, lay out all appliqué shapes on the beige print 14" foundation square. Fuse all pieces in place. Using matching thread and working from bottom layer to top, machine-satin-stitch around each appliqué.

3. Align a marked burgundy tone-on-tone square with opposite end of Step 2 rectangle (Diagram 2; again note direction of marked line). Stitch, trim, and press as before to make a gold Flying Geese unit. The unit should be 2-1/2x4-1/2" including seam allowances.
